Op-ed: America First...Consciences Second


Op-ed: 
America First...Consciences Second
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio bit.ly/2cpXuRd

In this presidential election cycle it is important to remember what Hillary Clinton is above all else…besides being a liar of course…as in she is a hypocrite of the first degree. And what is a hypocrite but someone who pretends, usually for personal and/or political gain, to have certain convictions that they actually do not have, let alone respect or live their lives by.

And when you think about it, even more grievous than the hypocrisy of the Hillary kind is the hypocrisy of those who call themselves Republicans or true Conservatives, and they do so while they smile to your face but then go and stab both conservatism and America in the back at the voting booth.

And these particular hypocrites are so very dangerous to the game we call politics because these are the very hypocrites that can and many times do ultimately end up being the ones who pick our country’s leaders. And those they are thinking of picking in this election cycle they are picking solely to shield their delicate ‘supposed’ consciences from the sad and very harsh realities existing in the world today.

Burying their heads in the sand instead of doing what is in actuality morally right.

And sadly, we now have these very same hypocrites crying ‘foul' when we of ‘true conscience’ call them out on their above said hypocrisy.

And who are we of ‘true conscience’…we are those who see this particular election not as a choice between bad and worse or between the lesser of two evils…but a choice between a man who at least offers we Americans hope vs. a woman offering us nothing but utter despair… in other words this is an election between those of us putting America first vs. those of us doing anything but. In even simpler and more direct terms…this is an election between those of us voting for Donald Trump vs. the now self-named conscience voters who claim to be Conservatives or Republican but whose actions prove they are not.

And who amongst us is leading the charge against hope…a charge that actually aides in getting Hillary elected whether they choose to stay home and not vote or they choose to cast a useless third party vote that is actually a vote for Hillary…it’s today's conscience voters...once and sometimes still referred to as the 'holier-than-thou' sorts...who cost us the 2012 election…as in the oh so judgmental folks who relish in wearing their religion on their sleeves and expect us all to do the same…as long as it’s their beliefs and theirs alone that we wear.

Now of course I am not speaking of those who are truly pious because to do so would be both hypocrisy in its own right and a lie on my part, but I am speaking of those who would not vote for Mitt Romney simply because he is a Mormon…I am speaking of those who are ready to do the very same thing this time around with Donald Trump, because he too is not their particular brand of Christian tea that they so love to stir with a judgmental spoon, and because he is also shall we say ‘a bit rough around the edges’…in other words flawed. And what do these moralistic sorts forget above all else…simply that we all are flawed to one degree or another.

“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you…” – Matthew 7:1-5

And judge the majority is what these conscience voting moralistic sorts do…again of course not all…as they continue to herald the social issues and what they consider unacceptable behaviors as the deciding factors when choosing whom they will vote for instead of putting what is best for our country first, something especially needed now in these most dangerous of times.

And by their once again making said social issues and personal behaviors…with the key word being ‘personal’… making these the most important and all-consuming issues of this political race, the conscience voters continue to ignore two important facts…first, the social issues belong to the states and have no place in the presidential discourse and second, who amongst us has always been perfect in both their behaviors and deeds… no one I would dare say except maybe for God himself that is.

So with that said lets speak in realities…tangible proof realities as to why the social issues and long ago behaviors must not be part of this or any future  presidential discourse…and it is really quite simple for the president’s duties are clearly laid out in the Constitution for all to see and there is not a behavior listed amongst them. And I surely hope these self-serving conscience voting sorts remember that it is the Constitution that is the law of our land not the Holy Bible for if it was so we would be a theocracy and not a Republic…the very thing that our Founders and Framers intended us to be.

And remember too, that our Founders and Framers always intended for the legislative branch of government to be the more influential and to have more power than the person serving as the titular steward of America’s ship.

So what exactly are the duties of the president…as per the United States Constitution…Article II, Sections 2 and 3…these and these alone are the official presidential duties and the ones one should use when deciding whom to vote for:   

·       1. The President is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces of the United States, and of each state’s militia when the nation has need of it
·        2. Has power to obtain information and opinions from heads of the executive departments
·        3. May grant pardons and reprieves for crimes against the United States
·        4. Makes treaties with other countries with the approval of the Senate
·        5. Appoints ambassadors, federal judges, and heads of executive departments all subject to the approval of the Senate; the President also has power to fill any vacancies that may happen while the Senate is in recess
·        6. Must report to Congress from time to time about the state of the union and recommend whatever measures he thinks are necessary
·         7. May call members of Congress together on extraordinary occasions as well as adjourn their meetings when they cannot agree on their own about when to do this
·         8. Receives foreign ambassadors and other public officials
·         9. Is responsible for enforcing the nation’s laws
·        10. Issues commissions to all officers of the United States

Now after reading this list how can any of you conscience voters think Hillary Clinton…forever to be rightfully known as the ‘Butcher of Benghazi’…is qualified to do or uphold any of these duties that she would be a charged with if elected…and pay close attention to number nine…’enforcing the nation’s laws’…you must if you love this country please put ‘America first’ above your own self-serving moralistic agenda.

Forget one man’s silly words said and the unproven accusations made and focus your righteous indignation on the very one who wants you to fund partial birth abortions…on the very one who wants to bring into our country unable to vet anything but refugees…on the very one not only in bed with our enemies but one whose campaign war chest is full of funding from said enemies …on the very one who wants open borders and open trade both of which will turn our beloved America into an illegals free-for-all paradise…on the very one who cannot remember emails destroyed that she herself sent on a server she knew she should not have let alone use…on the very one who wants to give away even more of your taxpayer dollars to the ‘gimme-gimme you owe me’ sponges of our society just to keep them voting Democratic for even more generations to come…on the very one as corrupt and criminal as the man whose third term in office she would be the surrogate for…need I go on…I think not.

Hillary Clinton has spent the entirety of her thirty plus year political career embracing and pushing forward ideas and issues that slap the very holy book you conscience voters say you embrace with every fiber of your being, and yet you are willing to repeat 2012 all over again just so your judgmental consciences are appeased into thinking you took the moral high ground over someone’s long ago behaviors. Well tell me what will your consciences will say when it will be you who allows Hillary Clinton to take away not only your right but our right to worship as we please…when Hillary Clinton takes away not only your right but our right “to keep and bear arms”…when Hillary Clinton takes away the liberties and freedoms you claim to so cherish while your protest vote cast or not voting at all takes away those liberties and freedoms from ‘We the People’ as a collective whole…tell me what will your self-serving consciences say then…perhaps the bad man saying a bad word made me do it…that does not cut it my friends.

Sorry folks but in this day and age of islamic terrorism…some of which is already here upon our shores…and with Hillary's words and actions showing she hopes more will soon be knocking on America’s door…that is one risk above all else that your consciences cannot and must not ignore.

Simply put…and let these words be ingrained upon your consciences…Hillary Clinton is no friend of Christianity… not to Catholicism to Evangelicals or to any of the over 34,000 plus denominations of churches existing in the world today including the 1,200 right here in our beloved America…nor is Hillary Clinton a friend to Judaism, Buddhism, or Hinduism as well for like Obama this most vile of women’s allegiances seem to align with those very ones out to kill us all.

So if you find yourself even remotely considering voting for anybody but Donald Trump ask yourself this…what would God the Father of us all do…would He let America die over silly words said and unproven accusations made…I think not…or would He vote for at least the hope of a possible future for His children…that I believe He would do and I believe in my heart that you all know that too.

Vote wisely come November 8th…America’s remaining a Republic depends on you conscience voters using your brains instead of misplaced emotions against a man who truly does love this country vs. a woman whose only love is for herself and for those countries and peoples wishing to do America harm.
